Good morning, Steve - The third letter in the serial number should be "F" for single stage, "M" for dual clutch. There are three or four letters: S(D,G,N)(F,M,)and possibly Y ahead of 5 or 6 serial numbers. S=standard (or low clearance) chassis, D= Perkins diesel engine
G= Gas
N= Standard (4 cyl) diesel Y= differential lock if equipped. The plate is often missing. If so, there's an earlier series of posts (early March?) about how to tell the single stage/2 stage clutch without the plate. The 35's are probably the most cost-effective tractors around today. You get more bang (or rather purr - the bang is coloured green!) for your buck than anything else on the market. As with any used unit you may have some initial problems bringing it up to speed, but parts are readily available. Perkins engines are highest power (38 hp compared with 32/35), most fuel-efficient, and parts are the cheapest of the three. My $.03 (Thats $ Canadian. = .02 US!).
